You’ll have a primary briefing to check your level, then our surf instructors will integrate within a group accordingly your level.

Typical Day

We left around 9:30AM, in search of the best spot to surf. We want with this way to show you a typical day of a experienced surfed, searching for the place according the tide, wind, swell size and direction. The waves aren’t made by a machine, so isn’t always perfect on the same beach.

On the right spot, we start with a short introduction and warm-up. After 1:30-2H in the water, it’s lunchtime. After this pause, we start the second class of the day.
At the end of a surf day, you will be tired and your level of endorphins is very high, then it is time to go back to the beach and have a warm bath.

Generally our team organizes night tours to typical restaurants, where everyone is welcome. After an excellent dinner, depending on your energy, it’s time for a drink in the bars or if you want to go rest for the next day!

This is for you if:

You are a total Beginner“I never tried Surfing before but I know how to swim.”

OR: You have very Limited Experience“I’ve tried Surfing before, only a few times. I still struggle with the Basics: Paddling & Popping Up.”

OR: You can Take Off with some Help“With Assistance, I’m able to Stand Up and go Straight on a wave, with decent control.”

Kids Surf Lesson Policy

Safety and professionalism are the always present at Wavesensations. This is even more true when working with kids.

Under 8 — We cannot accept on our Day TripsFrom 8 to 12 — Lessons are available if you can demonstrate your child’s swimming ability. Please note however that we require one parent or guardian to be in the water supervising each child at all times, since our instructors will have other guests to attend to. The guardian can not join the same lesson while they are supervising the child.From 12 – 16 — Lessons are available with a parent or guardian supervising at the same beach. The guardian(s) can join the same lesson if they wish.

Why should you get this?

Surfing has a very steep learning curve. Understanding the basic techniques from the start is key. Even if you have taken a few lessons here and there, you might have a lot more to learn at this level of coaching. The difference is that you will live a whole trip with the same surf guides that will get time to know how you surf and what you need to improve.

amazing experience with an amazing team! I really recommend this experience with them because are all nice people passionate about surfing and are always trying to let you feeling the waves in the best way possible!

Best surf school in Sagres! Came here twice, 2016 and 2018, they did not disappoint. Carlos is the best instructor, will always make sure lessons are fun and educational. Alec Lawrance was also an amazing instructor there in 2016!Would definitely go back again.

Highly recommend you use this surf company when visiting Sagres, my boyfriend rented a board and we joined them for transfers to and from the beach each day. The guys always spend time in the morning checking for the best conditions and beach and were so welcoming and helpful, the learners all looked like they were having a great time too.Although I wasn't surfing I still loved the experience and Mark fully appreciated the guidance and support, thank you so much to Alex, Carlos & Olly. The girls we met in the shop are also great and very helpful, thank you!! ..... We will be back I hope!!! �⛱
